Achievements and performance
Summary of the main achievements of We have 75 active members playing regularly in our clubhouse. There is the charity during the financial period an option to play online in our Friday tournament and this is used by both our own members and others from clubs across Scotland.

Visitors continued to be welcome throughout the year.
Our club has also run 2 bridge congresses in our area. These were attended by players throughout the country and are proving extremely popular and profitable.
